From Christianity Today: The militant Muslim group Boko Haram wants to impose Shariah Law in Nigeria. Previously, it has targeted government buildings. But in 2009, it changed tactics and began targeting Christian churches. This has prompted responses from the government and Christian groups which could limit religious freedom even further. Some Christians have even engaged in reprisals.
